While stopped at a red light I noticed that the steering wheel would start shaking and turning on its own. Then a few days later my service ESC and power steering lights started coming on and I was unable to turn the car left or right.. I would turn the car off for a few then turn it back on and it would unlock. That lasted for a few more days and then the steering wheel started locking up while I was driving. I took the car to the dealer and they said it was my power steering sensor. Its seems to be working fine now however I will never by another Chevy maliibu I have had nothing but problems since I purchase this car the first issue was my light constantly kept going out. I was on the highway coming home from an out off town trip and cars were flashing there lights. I pulled over I had no back lights. I took it the dealer they said it was my battery causing my car to short circuit. It cost me $400. Then the same thing happened 20 days later the dealer wanted me to pay to have it looked at again no way. Come to find out it was a #20 fuse over the rear driver side tire wheel that kept blowing. Needles to say I know ride around with a pack of fuses in my car.. the car has 87,858 miles on

ESC light went on. Suggest was to get ESC serviced because of power steering failure. When engine ws turned off and turned back on, everything worked. But the same thing continued to happen time and time again. Went on the internet and noticed that a number of complaints have been filed similar to what I am experiencing. This happened at slow speed, higher speeds and when stopped. Car was drivable without power steering but difficult to maneuver.

While stopped the steering wheel begins to click, shake, and move on its own. This continues to happen even worse while driving on the highway making it harder to control the vehicle. There are no lights on. Mechanic believes it may be the sensor in the motor for the power steering but isn't sure.
